Change to Landing Stage Access Rules

From Monday 14 September, a maximum of six people will now be permitted on the landing stage at any one time.

The Model Yachting Association have recently published guidance regarding competitive sailing. Any Club member intending to engage in any competitive sailing on Etherow Lake is asked to study this document, and observe all recommendations within it.

This document MYA-Covid-Guidance, in .PDF format, can be downloaded from here.

Please note that restrictions on the use of the Clubhouse and Sailing Club Compound remain in place.

If essential access to either is required, please arrange with our Commodore, John Berry.

 Commodore's Challenge

Judgement Day

Because of the recent lockdowns, the original scheduled judging day in August had to go by the board.

However, as things now seem to be quieting down a bit, the Commodore has decided it is now safe to go ahead with judging of the entries, albeit only on the landing stage, as the Clubhouse is still out of bounds.

He has announced that judging will now take place on:

Wednesday 30 September at 11 a.m. on the landing stage.

Any who are intending to enter, but who can not make that date, please try and arrange a deputy to bring your boat instead. If that proves impossible, contact Geoff Garside, who will be happy to take your boat along, as well as his own entry.

All members are invited to attend the judging and offer support. We hope to see you then.
